The bathing suit was too big in the bottom. If you need extra room in the rear it would be a good fit. I do not. The leg area had too many gathers for a regular size rear end. I loved it other wise. I had planned to return it but it is too much trouble. I will not be doing mail order with this company anymore.

Got this one over a competition suit to be more "conservative." Hip and backside coverage is good, but topside, not so good. Back straps did loosen after first wear, but "bra shelf" is somewhere around mid-rib (and I don''t have much up top). I am 5'' 8", so maybe this is best for small to mid-length torso ladies. Longer torso, and you''ll be worried about showing the headlights. The top front looks high, but each time I come out of the water to stand, I''m pulling up the front. It''s more "scoop" than it looks in the picture. Big gals, beware. As many noted, this might be the motivator suit to make you lose a few, but for me, I would rather grow out of a suit than into one.

This is the third time i''ve ordered this suit.  It fits perfectly, stays put, is stretchy AND supportive, soft - no chafing. It lasts a really long time in the heavily chlorinated pool I swim in 4-6 days a week. Please never discontinue this suit!!

This is the third time I have ordered this suit. So I have worn it for many years now. It lasts a long time and I love the fit. It does not go too low in back to show my love handles. That is important. I can swim hard and it stays in place.

I am an 8 and ordered a 10, which fits very well.  I always have to size up with speedo.  I like the ultraback, and the fabric seems very sturdy.  I like the higher cut legs in the contemporary style, but did not realize the style also has a lower cut front.  Not too revealing, but definitely lower than a moderate cut.

Needed swimsuit in a hurry for water aerobics and I hate to shop because I live over an hour away from a mall. I''m a first time on line swimsuit buyer and not disappointed. The suit looks great, feels great and works well in the water. I think maybe I''ll try a "long" size next since the straps are a wee bit tight and my rear end peeks out some if you know what I mean, but not enough to embarrass me. I''m 5''5-1/2, size 10 clothes so ordered a12 suit but need an extra inch. I plan on ordering more. I really like the look of the suit.
